I would like to propose that the AI policy is placed under CC-BY-4.0. It would be useful for downstream projects.

LLM/AI disclosure

No AI was used here.

Sounds good.

By the way, similar policy discussions have started for NumPy and SciPy now. I can't really keep up, but the SciPy PR is here: scipy/scipy#24583.

There's a link to the LLVM AI policy there too. I believe the NumPy mailing list discussion was particularly long: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/numpy-discussion@python.org/thread/LAR7P3KQWHWAIKYSHTS2MY7X4HUBVA3L/#XPPHA3EQDIIYOWCIPL3FBOEG335TR4FW

Also, separate discussions about adding agents files to repos to tell LLMs what to do/not do: https://discuss.scientific-python.org/t/agents-md-and-claude-md-addition-to-scipy-repository/2233
